Hydraulic oil

We recommend the following hydraulic oils for the hydraulic
cylinder:
Shell Tellus T 22
Aral Vitam Gf 22
BP Energol HLP 22
Mobil DTE 11
or equivalent
Do not use any other types of oil. The use of any other
type of oil will adversely affect the operation of the
hydraulic cylinder.
Please note the enclosed assembling
sheet!

Cleaning / replacing the air filter

(36)
Clean the air filter from dust and dirt on a regular basis to
prevent
− starting problems,
− loss of output,
too high fuel consumption.
−
Clean the air filter every 50 operating hours, or more
frequently in dusty environments (every 10 hours).

1. Unscrew only the machine knob nut and remove the
cover (29).
2. Unscrew the wing nut and remove the air filter (36).
3. Remove the foam filter (36A) from the paper filter
(36B).
4. Inspect both air filter elements. Replace the elements if
damaged.
5. Clean the filter elements if they are re-used.
Paper filter: To remove the dirt, tap the filter several
times against a hard surface. You can also
blow the filter clean with compressed air (not
over 2.07 bar).
Foam filter: Wash the air filter in warm soap water. Rinse
well. Squeeze the filter in a dry and clean
cloth. Allow the filter to dry well. Dip the filter
into engine oil and then squeeze it in a dry
and clean cloth to remove surplus oil. The
engine smokes if the foam contains too
much excess oil.
6. Clean the air filter mounting plate (37) and seal (40)
with a wet rag. Make sure that no dirt enters the air line to
the carburetor.
7. Place the foam filter on the paper filter. Install the
complete air filter again. Tighten the wings nuts. Pay
attention that the seal (40) is installed under the air filter.
8. Clean the cover with a wet rag.
9. Re-mount the cover.
Never operate the machine without air filter. Dust and
dirt can enter the engine and cause damages to the
machine.
Replace the air filter on a regular basis.
Damaged air filters must be replaced without delay.

Checking / replacing the spark plug (38)

Do not touch the spark plug or the spark plug connector
while the engine is running. High voltage!
Risk of burning on the hot engine. Wear protective
gloves.
Check the spark plug and the spark gap on a regular basis.
For this proceed as follows:
1. Allow the engine to cool down.
2. Unscrew only the machine knob nut and remove the
cover (29).
3. Unscrew the wing nut and remove the air filter (36).
4. Pull the spark plug connector (35) from the spark
plug (38).
5. Remove the spark plug using the supplied spark plug
wrench (39).
6. Clean the spark
contaminated.
7. The electrode gap must be 0.7 – 0.8 mm.
8. Carefully screw in the spark plug by hand to
prevent damage to the thread.
9. Now tighten the spark plug with the spark
plug wrench.
Used spark plug: 1/8 – 1/4 turn
plug when it is
